Timing tuning question

When looking at the IGL/IGT maps, the high rpm, low load area on upper right corner seems to have advance timing up 51 degrees.
Why does it need this much advance. I know its not under any load. But wouldn't this make the engine knocks?
What is the safe value to put in? I saw Chuck (cewrx7r1) is using 38 on all of those top right area.

I put 38 there after a few people experieneced higher than normal knock levels
when the engine dropped through the area.

Put it this way, it does not hurt and is on the side of safety.

Yes, I think the same way, since I saw higher knock number there.
My next question is 38 enough? Or should it be lower.
